Kudos for Police action

It’s not often that the police are given credit for their quick response to crime but this group of policemen may have averted a major incident outside of the Water Chris hotel this afternoon.

Capitol News understands that the man and his girl friend had an altercation and he decided to trace the woman down the street. The woman reportedly works at Giftland office max and left for lunch when she realized that she was being followed. The man was armed with an ice pick and there are reports that he had threatened to stab the woman.

It is unclear if the woman alerted the police. The man was taken to the Brickdam police station for questioning.
